Cognitive phenotypes in temporal lobe epilepsy utilizing data- and clinically driven approaches: Moving toward a new taxonomy.
Article in Epilepsia, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 41 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo identify cognitive phenotypes in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and test their reproducibility in a large, multi-site cohort of patients using both data-driven and clinically driven approaches.
methodFour-hundred seven patients with TLE who underwent a comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation at one of four epilepsy centers were included. Scores on tests of verbal memory, naming, fluency, executive function, and psychomotor speed were converted into z-scores based on 151 healthy controls (HCs). For the data-driven method, cluster analysis (k-means) was used to determine the optimal number of clusters. For the clinically driven method, impairment was defined as >1.5 standard deviations below the mean of the HC, and patients were classified into groups based on the pattern of impairment.
resultsCluster analysis revealed a three-cluster solution characterized by (a) generalized impairment (29%), (b) language and memory impairment (28%), and (c) no impairment (43%). Based on the clinical criteria, the same broad categories were identified, but with a different distribution: (a) generalized impairment (37%), (b) language and memory impairment (30%), and (c) no impairment (33%). There was a 82.6% concordance rate with good agreement (κ = .716) between the methods. Forty-eight patients classified as having a normal profile based on cluster analysis were classified as having generalized impairment (n = 16) or an isolated language/memory impairment (n = 32) based on the clinical criteria. Patients with generalized impairment had a longer disease duration and patients with no impairment had more years of education. However, patients demonstrating the classic TLE profile (ie, language and memory impairment) were not more likely to have an earlier age at onset or mesial temporal sclerosis. SIGNIFICANCE: We validate previous findings from single-site studies that have identified three unique cognitive phenotypes in TLE and offer a means of translating the patterns into a clinical diagnostic criteria, representing a novel taxonomy of neuropsychological status in TLE.
